Homework Statement


A system expands by 0.75 m^3 at a constant pressure of 125 kPa. Find the heat that flows into or out of the system if its internal energy
a. Increases by 65J
b. Decreases by 1850 J
give answer kJ


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


P=125 kPA
delta U=Q-W
W=P(delta U)
so i plug in the numbers
W=(125kPa)(0.75m^3)=93.75

Part a)
delta U=65kPA

65=Q-93.75
Q= 158.75 J= .15878 kJ

Part B)
1850= Q-93.75
Q= 1756.25J=1.77kJ

And the answer is wrong, can someone help me please
 
Physics news on Phys.org
no i meant W=P(delta V)
I just typed in the wrong thing
sorry for the mistake
so do you know what i should do
 

Thread 'Direction of the magnetic field of an oscillating charge'

Hello everyone, I’m considering a point charge q that oscillates harmonically about the origin along the z-axis, e.g. $$z_{q}(t)= A\sin(wt)$$ In a strongly simplified / quasi-instantaneous approximation I ignore retardation and take the electric field at the position ##r=(x,y,z)## simply to be the “Coulomb field at the charge’s instantaneous position”: $$E(r,t)=\frac{q}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}}\frac{r-r_{q}(t)}{||r-r_{q}(t)||^{3}}$$ with $$r_{q}(t)=(0,0,z_{q}(t))$$ (I’m aware this isn’t...

Thread 'Initial conditions for orbits around a wormhole'

Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
